Guest neesy111 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 25m Gates+matchday seems a bit low for a team that pulls 50k attendances consistently. Is that for the C'ship season? It's around 30m for us last few seasons in the PL. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say an average season ticket is £500 x 50,000 people, that's £25m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afar Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 It's ludicrous to believe despite slashing the wage bill that we needed 73 million (40 million transfer profits plus the 33 million "loan") to stay afloat last year, if every club needed that amount to survive when they go down, they would all be in administration surely, especially when we more or less filled out our stadium every game last season, no one else who gets relegated will come anywhere near our average attendance. Just tax fiddling and a way to say to everyone how much we our in debt to his benevolent leadership. Gates & matchday is about £25m The wage bill the year we went down was triple that. That can't even buy you Danny Drinkwater. Ticket income is becoming less and less important as the ridiculous TV money increases. The wage bill we took into the season was a lot less than what we went down with, with the sales and loan outs we made, no way the inbounds made the amount of those we got shot of. Also we did get paachute payments (or PL TV deal, since that's paid in arrears I think). I'll say it again, you should not need 73 million just to survive one season in the champ, the money has just gone into the fat man's pocket but through accountancy magic it'll be seen as him bailing us out.

Where's £73m from? You can't do 'accountancy magic' on this sort of thing- it all has to be disclosed as related party transactions, the only problem is it takes an age for this information to actually get into the public domain.

Stifler Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Looks like two clubs in particular fucked them about and Sinclair's agent was pissing about. Imagine sitting at a train station around the corner from a club you want to sign for, your club has agreed to sell you, but your agents wants more money? I would have told my agent to fuck off and signed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if it's not a mega-rich player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty66 Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Why bother with an agent if your a player? Surely if a club wants to sign you and they find out you have no agent, they would be happy to bump up your wages/signing on fee considering they won't be paying a ridiculous fee to an agent. Failing that just hire your dad/brother/best man to deal with all the phone calls and enquires about you. Hiring an agent and being under contract with him for the next 4 years with him stopping you joining other clubs because he's not getting what he wants?! Madness.
